Can I set the state of a simple task executor using process flow? See model "setstateTE" for example.

Hi @Kari Payton,

Task executers will set their own state as they perform tasks, leading to an overwriting of your Set State code. To get around this issue, I was able to put a breathe delay before the first custom code in your process flow to ensure the task executer would be in the 'utilize' state during the next delay.
